Player Page:PC Census

From WoD Gotham

Jump to: navigation, search

The PC Census is a page that keeps track of the different archetypes of characters in WoDG. It also keeps track of the amount of player characters in a given Tribe, Clan, Tradition, etc.

The purpose of the PC Census is to help both players and STs match up character concepts to chronicle needs and setting conditions. This way we don't end up with a chronicle too full of one type of character if it doesn't make sense for the setting.

Players also find it beneficial when they are creating a character to use the PC Census to help them find a character concept that has a realistic chance of filling an uncovered niche.

We don't disclose specific numbers, rather we report what we have a bit too much of or in what areas we are short. STs might also use it to convey a sort of wishlist to the community - letting them know that they need more of a specific type of character for storyline purposes, etc.

Restricted Characters Requirements

Questions?

If you still have questions after reading the wiki, place a post in the Poke a ST forum. Please do not FPM.

Characters of restricted character types are subject to our Inactivity Policy. In taking on the responsibility of playing a restricted character type, the player will maintain a regular activity level with that character. This means regular play a couple times a week and follow up activities such as downtime.

All players seeking to play restricted characters are expected to be experienced in their given venue and willing to do the research required if they are unfamiliar with the particular tribe, clan, or breed. No exceptions.

To petition to play a restricted character type please send a Poke to the STs.

Restricted Character types are:

  • Tremere
  • Any Garou not of the Bone Gnawer or Glass Walker tribe
  • Metis

Vampire ST Wishlist

People with imagination who understand what a vampire is and have an appreciation of the HORROR genre and acting who can also share a stage with their fellow actors.

Vampire ST Absolute Peeve

  • Any farcical concepts will be shot down immediately. Any crossover references in a concept or character history will be shot down immediately.
  • Any mental disability or any trait which would hamper a vampire's ability to feel the effects of Degeneration are not allowed. Examples of this might include a disassociative disorder which impairs empathy like autism or schizophrenia. This would include Malkavian concepts where the character has a trait that might make it impossible to understand and appreciate the horrors of Degeneration.
  • If you think your concept is at all skirting the edge of our creation rules, feel free to Poke a ST before you start creation and run the idea by the staff.

Vampire ST Other Character Notes


Tremere Notice

Tremere are rare in WoDG due to story events and therefore are limited. Players who wish to play them, must be active players and experienced with the clan. Anyone playing a Tremere is subject to our Inactivity Policy (Item #6). We require Tremere applicants to have a proven track record of steady participation in the community. We have to know for a fact that you're not a flake. Therefore, they are not a clan that is available to new players of the community. Novices with Tremere are allowed to seek a Tremere slot, but they are responsible for knowing the rigid structure of the clan and how it works PRIOR TO sanctioning. Those who do not make an effort to educate themselves, will not be given one of these coveted slots. Please refer to the links below.

Required Reading: WoDG's Thaumaturgical Companion

Suggested Reading: Clanbook Tremere: Revised Edition and Second Edition, Blood Magic: Secrets of Thaumaturgy.

Werewolf ST Wishlist

We are alse looking for ST's. If you are passionate about WtA and the urban setting please apply to join out team. 

That every player reads and understands Garou 101.

Werewolf ST Absolute Peeve

Any farcical concepts will be shot down immediately. Any crossover references in a concept or character history will be shot down immediately. There will be no snowflakes. I've gotten a few concepts that try to circumvent our tribal and breed restrictions. There will be no hidden Silver Fang Princesses among the Bone Gnawers.

  • If you think your concept is at all skirting the edge of our creation rules, feel free to Poke a ST before you start creation and run the idea by the staff.

Remember that Rage colors interactions with everyone and everything. Even a Ragabash with Rage 1 is going to feel the urge to rip someone's throat out now and again.

Mage ST Wishlist

Mage ST Expectations of Character Proposals

Mage is a complex game that can get out of hand quite quickly if the mindset of the player base is not one that enjoys the philosophical and deep personal moral questions posed by the venue in general. We will be looking for players that are willing to go deep inside their character's heads. Anyone that submits a "fluff" character or a munchkin will be told to move along. This is about a higher level of character study and RP than your average RPG. While hubris is one of the many themes in Mage, this game is not about lording godly powahs over static characters in order to get your epeen on at the expense of the venue.

We will only accept players willing to get deep into it and who want to experience the mindfuckery of the venue with all its infinite possibilities. Be prepared to be told to find another venue if you don't demonstrate a certain depth and maturity that would indicate that you're willing to take your RP to the level required in your character proposal.

Activity Expectations

Finally, taking on the responsibility of playing a mage takes the same level of commitment as required for a restricted character type. That means mage players are hardcore players that will maintain a regular activity level with that character. Regular and active play is defined as a couple times a week and follow up activities such as downtime. If you are unable to do so, do not submit a mage character.

Mage ST Absolute Peeve

Flakes and munchkin players who are not willing to get deep into the headspace of the venue.

Mage ST Other Character Notes

  • We will accept players new to mage, provided that they do their research and demonstrate a willingness to take direction.
  • Any farcical concepts will be shot down immediately. Any crossover references in a concept or character history will be shot down immediately.
  • Mage players should all be open minded and willing to step out of their normal comfort zones. Mage is not for inhibited players.
  • Do not submit a mage concept, if you are a casual player. Your proposal will not be accepted. Mages take time to develop and run effectively.

Remember before a character is put into the Dossier, please submit a character concept in the forum for approval.  Mage concept submission

See: Mage Rulings for specific Tradition notes pertaining to character creation.

* These character types can not be taken at character creation. Your character has to get promoted, made, accepted, etc. into these groups as part of a storyline over the course of RP. For instance, your character can start with the ambition to get made and be a full fledged "wiseguy" and be a guy from the neighborhood. However, he will not be a "made" guy to start. Capice?
